Aaron Prashanth - PeerSpot reviewer
DevOps Engineer at Siemens Industry
Consistent releases have improved collaboration while configuration procedures still need simplification
What stands out for me in Chef SaaS is that the procedure is straightforward and the release goes smoothly because we can create different versions according to our own requirements. Chef SaaS helps with collaboration between our development and operations team. A benefit I can see is that configuring is easier because developers commit new code and new versions, and using Chef SaaS, we can create different cookbooks. Cookbooks contain different recipes, and different cookbooks represent different versions. Using these versions, we can consolidate and create a new package that will help us with the release. Since this is a product-based company and our product is wind turbines, every time we have a product release or patch release, Chef SaaS helps us tremendously. We release different patch cycles such as LTS patch cycles, Windows patches, or any kind of patch feature and built features. To maintain the cycle, the process is quite smooth.

Data cataloging has improved quality monitoring and automated lineage supports deeper insights
Integration to data sources and reliability and availability are the advantages in Collibra [Private Offer Only] that really stand out for me, and I believe those are probably the two most important points. I am working with the automated data lineage feature in Collibra [Private Offer Only]. The automated data lineage feature helps with traceability in the organization because it makes the catalog live; rather than the catalog being a spreadsheet essentially with definitions, users can not only find the business definition, but then also see which tables and columns actually create this business term. That's very powerful. Regarding intelligent workflow capabilities, I believe it impacts data stewardship tasks within my team by improving and helping in making and creating those definitions. It is essential to us that Collibra [Private Offer Only] integrates with other data systems in our environment, and we are using it, and it's quite effective. The integration aspect of Collibra [Private Offer Only] is important because it provides data integration that delivers lineage into Databricks, Salesforce, and soon also SAP.
